ABSTRACT

The article offers insights the author gained on mentoring and leadership from a book by Dave Stoddard and from attending the Financial Planning Association's annual leadership Conference. Perpetual students are considered the best leaders no matter how long they have been practicing their craft. Stoddard, in his book, tells a story of how his first attempt at mentoring fell flat because he approached mentoring with an agenda. He advised to be present and compassionate. And it is also better to offer comfort and empathy.
